An address of one word (`todo`) was read as https://todo/ and looked for,
the person waiting up to 15 s for no instance to answer. A host is now a
domain of two labels or more, an IP address or localhost; anything else is
"This isn't an address." as it is typed. localhost and loopback addresses
typed without a scheme are reached over HTTP, as a server running on the
same machine has no certificate; HTTPS where typed (the developer's
review, 9 Nov 2026).
Whats-New: An address of a single word is now refused at once, rather than looked for.
Whats-New-De: Eine Adresse aus nur einem Wort wird jetzt sofort abgelehnt, statt danach zu suchen.

An account signed in or up to on an instance whose operator approves
new accounts, or one suspended, gets no session but a wait: the device
keeps its pass, words and handle in the keyring per instance
(SecureAccountWaitStore, InstanceStorage.waitOf), the auth status is
Waiting, and SessionGate shows WaitScreen in its own app, so the start
screen's sheets go with it. Every sign-in flow hands over to it: the
password's sign-in, sign-up, reset and account reset, SimpleLogin's
sign-in, sign-up and mending; their cubits show no problem then.
The wait screen shows the handle, the four words the operator reads out
for the person to match, and that Halkyon never asks anyone to read them
out (D33); it asks where the wait stands as it opens, every 30 seconds,
as the app comes back and when asked. A new account can be deleted with
its pass, a suspended one can't (ADR 0017). Approved, it leads to the
usual sign-in, once more as before (D31); a pass the instance knows no
more ends the wait. The start screen says where new accounts wait for
approval, and offers no Create an account where the operator takes none;
both refusals (closed, too many waiting) have their words, en and de.

- Deleting an identified account whose security can't be read (the
instance out of reach) says so and deletes nothing; it went on to a
deletion by the session alone, refused for an account with a password,
and the person saw a spinner, then nothing. A refusal still leaves the
session's own deletion.
- InstanceChoice's sharesStorage is required, so no app leaves it out and
removes a folder another instance uses.
- A PasswordUnlock forgotten is spent: its secrets read again fail
(StateError) rather than make a proof or a wrapping of zeros.

The reading of the full reading's fixes found that the device keeps
http://host/ and https://host/ in one place (folder, session key, keyring
prefix): someone with a stored http://host/ who added https://host/ and
then removed the first deleted the second's folder, session and keys while
it was in use, losing unsynced changes, and an anonymous account for good.
The places keep the names installs made (InstanceStorage.sharesWith says
which addresses share one): choosing an address the device keeps where a
known one is puts it in that one's place in the list, and removing an
address forgets nothing another known one uses. The build's own instance
keeps its place apart. Learn and Todo pass the storage's rule.

What the app sends an instance (the proofs that sign in, the keys'
wrappings, every request a session carries) must not be read or changed on
the way, so an instance is reached over HTTPS, or over plain HTTP only on
this machine (localhost, 127.0.0.0/8, ::1), as Jellyfin servers are. An
address over plain HTTP elsewhere is refused before anything is sent there.
One kept from before is never opened: the app says why, and offers another
instance or removing it from the device, never dropping it silently.
Development builds still use their own instance over HTTP (an emulator
reaches the developer's machine as 10.0.2.2); releases never.

What Learn and Todo each held now comes from halkyon_app:
- AccountTiles: whose account on which instance, switching, signing
out (asking first for an anonymous account, as it deletes it) and
deleting it (asking first), the app's own words passed in.
- showAppAbout: the app's name, version, icon and legalese as it gives
them, the source of what the instance runs (AppDependencies gains
sourceCodeUrl), the app's own parts, the licence list.
- resolveAppLocale: the first preferred language the app speaks, never
by country alone, British English otherwise.
- AssetCountryNames, the default of InstanceGate and InstanceScope:
Unicode CLDR 48.2's territory names in English and German
(tool/country_names.py, 7.6 KB), Hong Kong, Macao, Myanmar and
Palestine by their short names as Learn's world map has them, so
Todo says "Germany (EU)" where it said "DE (EU)".
Learn's texts read as before in every language; its About bloc and
gateway, its country names from the world map and the keys only the
moved code used are gone, as are Todo's copies.

An operator's DATA_LOCATION and BACKUP_LOCATION may name a subdivision
(ISO 3166-2, US-CA, DE-BY) besides the EU or a country. The app adds
"(EU)" to a member country and the country to a subdivision ("Germany
(EU)", "California, United States", "Bavaria, Germany (EU)"), in
English and German, and shows the most specific flag there is: a
subdivision's own where the flag package has one, else its country's.
Subdivision names come from Unicode CLDR 48.2 (tool/subdivision_names.py),
bundled with their licence, which the app registers.

What every Halkyon app's shell needs, taken from Halkyon Learn's and set
on halkyon_base's client: the instances a device keeps an account on,
the first start's tiles and where an instance keeps people's data, the
account switcher; signing in anonymously, with GitHub or an email code,
switching person and the start screen; the gates that build an app's
dependencies per instance and per person; and the sync service with its
status, Settings card and banner. Texts of its own in English and
German take the app's name; what only the app can say, it passes in.
Fakes for apps' tests are in testing.dart.
An instance's basics now name the app it serves (`app`, set by the
host's configuration), and an app accepts only an instance of its own.
SerialQueue and CoalescingRunner move into halkyon_core.
